Phil Dowd

Post by ClaretTony » Fri Mar 29, 2024 5:13 pm

Sad to read today that he's suffering with Parkinson's Disease. Diagnosed between three and four years ago, he's still working for PGMOL for now at the age of 61.

Can't believe he's 61. Feel for him.

Sad news.
A good friend of mine had Parkinson's for over fifteen years and sadly passed away earlier this month.
Devastating disease.

I was surprised at his age but his last game was West Brom v Southampton in the PL in Feb 2015. Good he’s getting on with things for now and keeping involved with football.
